This property is typically measured using the De Nouy (duh-NOY) ring method and it causes a pressure difference as described in the Young-Laplace equation. It is caused since molecules exert small amounts of force on each other and thus molecules on the perimeter will experience a net force pulling them inwards. This property is typically measured in units of Newton per meter and is lowered by mat
This property is typically measured using the De Nouy (duh-NOY) ring method and it causes a pressure difference as described in the Young-Laplace equation. It is caused since molecules exert small amounts of force on each other and thus molecules on the perimeter will experience a net force pulling them inwards. This property is typically measured in units of Newton per meter and is lowered by materials called surfactants. For 10 points, name this property of a liquid best seen in the ability of certain insects to walk on water.
